Nope. What I see as a problem is that the primary author and current de facto maintainer is so much of an asshole that he was forcibly removed from the Gentoo project, which PMS is supposed to be written for, and has ostracized (at least) one of the package manager's development team with his constant not-so-subtle attacks. Quite frankly, I'd prefer see Gentoo take control over the specification that defines the most important single feature of Gentoo and remove the non-Gentoo developers from its development. No offense, but you're not a Gentoo developer any longer and you shouldn't have a say in how *we* manage ourselves. You're more than welcome to contribute code, fork, or whatever the hell you want. This is open source, after all, but that doesn't mean you should be allowed to hold the position of power over Gentoo that you've been granted. -- Chris Gianelloni Release Engineering Strategic Lead Games Developer
